High above the city squareGlobes of light float in mid-airHigher still, against the nightClockwork angels bathed in light

You promise every treasure, to the foolish and the wiseGoddesses of mystery, spirits in disguiseEvery pleasure, we bow and close our eyesClockwork angels, promise every prize

Clockwork angels, spread their arms and singSynchronized and graceful, they move like living thingsGoddesses of Light, of Sea and Sky and LandClockwork angels, the people raise their hands - As if to fly

All around the city squarePower shimmers in the airPeople gazing up with loveTo those angels high above

Celestial machinery - move through your commandsGoddesses of mystery, so delicate and so grandMoved to worship, we bow and close our eyesClockwork angels, promise every prize

Lean not upon your own understandingIgnorance is well and truly blessedTrust in perfect love, and perfect planningEverything will turn out for the best

Stars aglow like scattered sparksSpan the sky in clockwork arcsHint at more than we can seeSpiritual machinery
